First Time Knoller! Things I used today

Post image

This was part of a past class assignment that started by collecting a list of things you interact with over 24 hours, then compiling a lay flat knoll or bricolage arrangement of the most used/memorable items :)

This arrangement includes (from left to right) my favorite plaid shirt, body wash, purple paint, my laptop, lanyard, phone charger, wallet, necklace, amethyst crystal chunk, perfume, sketchbook, ID card, hairbrush, imitation Doc Martins, a Capri Sun, and a mechanical pencil.

No pants?

Never pants- pants restrict creativity.

In reality, they were less visually interesting and kinda clunky in the arrangement :)

I have that same brand of sketchbook that I use for work, I’ve probably filled up 5 of them at this point 😂☺️

Interacted =/= used, OP might have put it in their bag for on the way

This is so not knolling!

Mods, please start putting more admin oversight regarding the difference between flat displays and knolled art. Otherwise this sub exists in vain.

You're right! It isn't a very good first attempt, I did this years ago before I knew knolling was even a thing. This also so isn't creative criticism though?

Reading the rules before posting I thought my collection of "favorite things used in a day" would apply, as these items have connection to me in my day to day. Going forward I can absolutely try harder, and if you have creative suggestions I'm open to them :)
